Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has once again criticized her ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill, accusing him of being the worst father to their son, King.
Birthday Message Sparks Controversy
The feud reignited after Churchill posted a heartfelt birthday message to their son, who turned 7 on Friday. In the message, he described King as the nicest thing that had ever happened to him and called him the most priceless gift of all.
In response, Dikeh took to her Instagram page on Saturday, sharing screenshots of her conversation with Churchill, highlighting what she described as alleged “lies” and misinformation he had posted online.
Custody Dispute and Parenting Claims
Dikeh explained that Churchill and his family previously claimed they had been awarded custody of King during legal proceedings. However, she said they ultimately chose to leave the child with her.
She added that she had legally won the custody battle and accused Churchill of lying about his role in their son’s life. According to Dikeh, Churchill has never taken responsibility for King’s welfare and only brags online about his involvement. She further labeled him a mere donor and described him as a “deadbeat father.”
History of Turbulent Marriage
Tonto Dikeh and Churchill were married in 2015 but split after just two years amid rumors of domestic violence and extramarital affairs. Their divorce attracted significant media attention, with the couple engaging in a highly publicized argument on social media.
